Most of the posts in Spotted seem to go unanswered these days. Have all our members gone shy (shy? - driving a Seven?!!!)
Or have we got far more owners who are not club members than we used to have?
I put the occasional spotted on here but I agree, it isn't as popular as it was. It was nice to come back from a blat and find you've been spotted!
Agreed. It is great to be noticed.

Democratic dissent is not disloyalty, it is a positive civic duty
It's winter?
TomB - try putting up a year's worth of Spotted and see the ratio of posts with replies to those without. It's far fewer than I used to see.
in 20 years I have never -not even once - had a reply to a post in spotted. Which is why I can't be arsed to post there any more
Also the number of owners / members using blatchat has fallen. Most don't use it from my local meet, but most use Facebook, or local WhatsApp groups. The local WhatsApp group for my area is fantastic.

Chris's experience reflects mine. I was speaking to a club member last year who had no idea what I was talking about when I mentioned Blatchat.
